The Roanoker - November/December 2020 - 96
ABOVE AND INSET:
A gallery wall can be
eclectic, showcasing
objects and treasures
alongside photos, or
more formal, like the grid
pattern of photos.

could have a mix of frames and three-dimensional and
other objects, like an oversized family monogram, tribal
masks collected from trips abroad, or decorative plates.
"A collage is really a collection, things that speak to
you," Hostetler notes.
You may have some of these things stored in boxes,
like family china you never intend to use. Why not
add a hook on the back, and hang it on a kitchen wall
in a pleasing arrangement to enjoy looking at it every
day? If you have memorabilia from trips, couple it with
photos of your adventures.
Or, perhaps COVID-19 has given you the time to go
through family photos on your computer, and identify
ones that are wall-worthy. While custom framing is
expensive, a custom look can be achieved with little
cost at retailers like Target, who sell gallery frame sets
that could cover a large wall for $100.
Once you've determined what you want to hang,
grab a tape measure, pencil and painter's tape.
"I like to determine what the boundaries are on each
side...how far I'm going with the collage to map out
my real estate," says Hostetler.
Measure out your frames and objects and put
painter's tape on the wall so you can see if you like the
arrangement before committing. If you can't think of
an available space but want to try your hand at a gallery
wall, try your staircase wall, hallway, or the space above
your laundry area.
If you are going for the eclectic look, be sure to mix
your sizes proportionally so the collage has balance.
Place the largest items first, then add in the smaller
items. Place an item on one side, and then shift to the
other side until the collage is completed. I
